Hearing the scattered footsteps outside the door, Luo Jie took out the pair of swords [Elucidator] and [Snow Chaser] from the storage space. He compared the angles and placed them side by side.
The mahogany knife rest behind you allows people to spot it with a little attention, but it doesn't look too deliberate.
"Is the landlord here?"
"come in."
The door to the room opened, and five girls of different heights and equally full of youthful vitality entered one after another.
"Sit down wherever you like... I heard that you have something to do with me?"
Several girls exchanged glances with each other, and finally focused their attention on "Narusegawa Naru".
"Narusegawa Naru", who had two dull tentacle-like hairs on her head, subconsciously glanced at the other four companions behind her. After receiving encouragement from her eyes, she took a deep breath and said, "We want to talk to you about the hot spring baths.
matter."
Luo Jie smiled. He had spent so much time renovating "Hin Grange" just to wait for these words.
Now that he has control of the rhythm, Luo Jie is not in a hurry and pretends to be nonchalant: "What? Is there something wrong with the newly renovated hot spring bath?"
Seeing Luo Jie pretending to be confused, "Naruzegawa Naru" suddenly lost his temper, punched the table, and said angrily: "Mr. Landlady, you should know what I'm talking about - we are not used to it.
If you are bathing with strangers, please change the hot spring back to the original one for girls only!"
The specialty of "Hinagawa" is the open-air hot spring in the backyard of the apartment. Chatting in the hot spring has long been a fixed pre-bedtime activity for "Narusegawa Naru" and several people every night. In order to occupy this hot spring, several people even privately designated it as a "girls"
"Exclusively" and drove the original landlord "Urashima Keitaro" to a temporary small bathroom on the second floor platform.
But now the situation is completely reversed. The new landlord has shamelessly taken away the hot spring that belongs to them, forcing them to have to line up with five people to squeeze into a small bathroom every day.
They now fully understand the inner feelings of "Urashima Keitaro" when he was driven away by them.
Luo Jie crossed his fingers, pretended to think for a moment, and asked: "Reason?"
"It's very simple - now you are the only man in the entire "Hinagano Manor", so naturally the minority must obey the majority!" "Naru Segawa" said confidently.
"Does the minority obey the majority?" Luo Jie nodded, "Okay, then I will summon everyone in the apartment now to hold a fair, just and open vote on the ownership of the hot springs..."
"Narusegawa Naru" almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
This is so shameless!
Although I don’t know what is going on with those beautiful girls with different styles in the apartment, anyone with a discerning eye can see that their relationship with the young landlord in front of me is extraordinary. If you ask these people to vote together, the result is not a bald head.
The lice on my body—it’s obvious!
"Naru-senpai, stop talking nonsense to him."
A cold voice came from behind "Narusegawa Naru", and the atmosphere in the entire room seemed to become chilly because of this sentence.
A girl wearing a large kendo uniform stood up from the tatami. Her waist-length black hair with a classic temperament and a tall figure of 1.75 meters made this girl with a childish look on her face stand out among the five girls.
Especially stands out from the crowd.
Seeing this girl standing up, Luo Jie's face showed a subtle smile.
All the arrangements he had made before were all for this person.
"Motoko Aoyama".
The heir to the secret swordsmanship "Kannaryu".
"I thought you were a nice person, but I didn't expect you to be just as dirty a pervert as your previous landlord." "Motoko Aoyama" looked coldly, and drew out the sword "Shisui" that never left her body, pointing the tip of the sword at a distance.
Luo Jie, who was sitting firmly on the floor, said, "You will place knives in the room. You must be a martial artist, so you should simply follow the rules of a martial artist - I, Aoyama Motoko, now challenge you! If I win
, please immediately change the hot spring to be only for girls, and you are not allowed to step into the hot spring without permission in the future!"
The fish finally bit the hook.
Luo Jie's eyes paused for a moment on the [Blast·Elucidator] and [Flying Snow·Dark Chaser] on the knife holder beside the wall, then turned his head and said calmly: "Okay, I accept your challenge... However, if it's you
What if you lose?"
"If I lose, we will never mention this matter again." "Motoko Aoyama" said seriously.
Luo Jie smiled: "If I lose, I will give up a hot spring, but if you lose, you will just keep the status quo. Do you think this is reasonable?"
"Then what do you want?" "Motoko Aoyama" frowned.
She also admitted that this bet was not equitable, but she could not think of an equal price that either of them could pay.
"How about this - if you lose, you will be my exclusive maid from now on."
One of Luo Jie's purposes for acquiring "Hinata Manor" was to gain the "Shen Ming Style Swordsmanship" possessed by "Motoko Aoyama".
This is a rare attack method that specifically targets spiritual bodies in the early stages of fantasy.
The only way to obtain [Swordsmanship of the Divine Call Style] is to conquer the inheritor "Motoko Aoyama".
In the original setting, "Motoko Aoyama" is a girl who only cares about kendo and the cowardly man she hates the most.
But if you take it literally and think that you can gain her favor by defeating her, that would be a big mistake.
"Motoko Aoyama" has an extremely competitive personality, and her pursuit of kendo has reached an almost obsessive level. If she simply defeats him, she will be regarded as a "lifelong enemy" and enter seclusion mode.
It will be difficult to see her again, and she will not appear again to challenge her until her combat power increases significantly.
Once entering this mode, it means starting an endless loop, and it is no longer possible to conquer "Motoko Aoyama".
Therefore, Luo Jie used the "hot spring incident" to set up a trap to lure "Motoko Aoyama" who had an excessive sense of justice to take the initiative to stand up for her companions, and then tied her to him with a bet so that she could not enter the "retreat——
"Challenge" closed loop mode.
To put it simply, it is actually a method commonly used by domineering female channel CEOs - first take care of the kidneys, then take care of the heart.
Seeing Luo Jie speaking firmly, the sharp-minded "Naruzegawa Naru" noticed something was wrong, grabbed the sleeve of "Motoko Aoyama" and whispered: "Motoko, calm down, the other party is so confident, I'm afraid there is some conspiracy.
.”
Luo Jie would not let "Naruzegawa Naru" destroy his long-planned plan so easily. He immediately used aggressive tactics and said with contempt on his face: "What? You proposed the challenge, and the war hasn't started yet.
Want to back down? The descendants of the so-called "Shen Ming Ryu" seem to be nothing more than that..."
